The New York Jets have been in a struggle this season, and a huge reason why has been the shaky play from the quarterback position.

The Jets have added former Lions QB Hendon Hooker to their practice squad on Monday with Tyrod Taylor, Justin Fields out due to injuries.

Fields, who has not played since Nov. 13, has been dealing with a knee injury since early December and is listed as questionable on the team's injury report. Taylor exited the Jets' Week 14 matchup against the Miami Dolphins in the first quarter due to a groin injury, which led New York to turn to Cook.

The New York Jets are going with Brady Cook to start against the New Orleans Saints as Justin Field and Tyrod Taylor aren't ready.

The Jets needed Martinez in Week 15 because Taylor and Fields were both out. That made Martinez the backup to undrafted rookie Brady Cook, who got his first start in the Jets' 48-20 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Brady Cook will get another start at quarterback for the Jets this week. Head coach Aaron Glenn announced that Cook will be in the starting lineup against the Saints on Sunday. Cook was 22-of-33 for 176 yards, a touchdown and three interceptions in last Sunday’s 48-20 loss to the Jaguars.
